the health organization called on the government to do more for its people. spoke to someone in rio de janeiro who said the health care systems are struggling in both the wealthier and poor states. >> in san paulo, which is brazil's richest state, there were over 80 people that died in line, waiting for a bed. it is no longer just an issue of -- which is in the north and the amazon region, it is something that has spread to the whole country. that is what's really keeping people worried. not only in brazil, but neighboring countries as well. countries that have borders with brazil. so they are worried that the virus in the new variants can spread equally if nothing is being done. president bolsonaro is still against lockdowns and curfews. he said that states that have taken these measures, governors are acting as dictators. he said the vaccine should be the solution, so, today he changed it. we are having the foreign health minister in brazil since the pandemic began a year ago. but many here say that, the leader of the country does not change his point of vie

foully was more than a coronavirus skeptic his government stop sharing data with the world health organization last year and declared tanzania covert free divine intervention the official tally still stands at $500.00 in 9 cases and $21.00 deaths all these months later he displayed a disregard for health advice focusing on prayer and local remedies while also claiming the vaccines were dangerous this true condemnation from the w.h.o. and the roman catholic church. denial had turned into policy for a nation of 60000000. that the ministry has no plans to receive vaccines for 19 which are already in use in other countries the w.h.o. has repeatedly asked the government to adopt preventative measures such as wearing face masks to start reporting cases and to share data foreign embassies began warning of a significant increase in the number of kobe 1000 cases that could overwhelm tanzania's limited hospital capacity in late february maggie farley finally began to change his tone warming to the idea of wearing locally made face masks that was just days before a shocking press conference from his fina

from there reporting, a joint world health organization china study on the origins of covid-19 says the transmission of the virus from bats to humans to another animal is the most likely scenario, that a lab leak is extremely unlikely according to a copy obtained by the associated press. the findings were largely as expected and left many questions unanswered by the report provided an in-depth reasoning behind the team's conclusion. further research in every area except proposed further research in every area except the last week's hypothesis. the washington examiner, robert redfield says covid-19 most likely came from the wuhan lab. from there reporting, the chinese government worked investigations into the origins of the virus which has killed 2.7 million people worldwide. dr. robert redfield, the director for the centers of disease control and prevention under former president donald trump, said covid-19 likely originated through an accidental escape from the wuhan institute of virology. joining us on the phone this morning is a reporter with the washington examiner who reports on th

countries like austria what this in place as early as next month, but the world health organization saysis too slowly given the slow pace of vaccination in the eu. we report from berlin. reporter: on a sunday morning, patrick walks his dog. he has recently been vaccinated and has the badge to prove it, but he would welcome something more efficient. >> the covid-19 health pass would allow us to travel, to get back a little bit of freedom. reporter: by june, those wishes will be a reality because the european commission plans a digital green pass, which all ee residents would have on a smart phone, proving they have been vaccinated, recently recovered from covid, or have a negative test. >> with this digital certificate we aim to help member states reinstate the freedom of movement in a safe, responsible, and trusted manner. reporter: for some leaders that goes neither far north fast enough. >> we do not want to wait for implementation. we will take further steps on a national level. reporter: many in the tourism industry welcomed the proposal. >> a vaccine certificate is essential to make

an international treaty on pandemic preparedness but what that includes isn't clear world health organizations chief was joined by the leaders of the u.k. and italy to call for a collective commitment it suggests surveillance and what it called a framework for cooperation but much of that already exists within the world health organization when i'm in mars' biggest ethnic minorities is calling for international help as it fears an assault by government troops many people have fled the karen region for neighboring thailand but say forces there turned thousands of them away a local rebel group says thousands of government troops are now advancing those the top stories do stay with us football rebels is up next i for now. that seems a promising path out of the pandemic but implementing the greatest inoculation in history is testing the global community around the world already a clear gap is emerged between rich nations and poor ones when it comes to vaccinating their populations from the geopolitics to the pure economics the misinformation the latest developments what's going on here is very dif

it doesn't really make sense. >> brennan: do you expect this world health organization report to be ahitewash? >> doctor: i don't know, margaret. what i would like to do is first see the report. i think that is really important. you're getting a lot of conjecture around about what they did and what they were allowed to do. no one is speaking specifically about that. when the report comes out, i would like to take a really close look at that. if, in fact, obviously, there was a lot of restrictions on the ability of the people who went there to really take a look, then i'm going to have some considerable concern about that. but let me take a look at the report first. >> brennan: what is your opinion on how covid became so well-adaptive to humans? >> doctor: margaret, that is an argument that goes back and forth. a very plausible explation for this is that this virus jumped from animal, maybe a bat, and then to a human. and we didn't see it. we being, at first, the chinese. and it was under the radar screen. we know that infections, many of them, are without symptoms. it is conceivable t
